After some soul-searching about the propriety of posting spam to
usenet and the resolution of what appears in retrospect to have been a
connectivity issue that was keeping gnus from running while everything
else on my machine worked fine, I have decided to share this. enjoy.

I have no further information on this. If you have advice for this person,
contact him/her directly, and please leave me out of it.

I think you're missing the point.

Yep, you don't have a clue.

The easiest way to win at 3 card monty is not to play. Meaning: if
your life is being "tampered with," a new 'cage' ain't gonna help.
What you need is a peek behind the curtain.


> I am in great danger and need this immediately!

But you do realize that in my view, "immediately" translates to "at
this point in time" so, there's really no big rush.

Well, if I'm to stick to the concept: I really don't have anything as

Adds that more than a few people seem to *need* such an ability.

Concurs emphatically with this assessment.

Doubts likelihood of understanding, and ponders possibility that Poster A
is, in fact, a spammer in hir spare time.

Chortles mightily at the above turnaround, and informs large redhead at the
bar that Poster B cannot pay for another drink before the following month.

Commiserates with Poster B over constant problem with re-writing paragraphs
and forgetting to delete all superfluous words, and wonders at the sheer
naivete required to post one's real email address to so many newsgroups at
once, presuming that said address is not merely Deja or Hotmail, or similar
non-ISP email provider.

Mentions famous acronym from popular sf novel of 1960s, by way of
agreement.

You're going to love this. You don't need to time travel. You just need to
stop caring about the petty things that these 'tamperers' mess with and
try to make you suffer for. Just step back and realize how unimportant so
many things are to your central well being and happiness. I've been down
this road. My car used to breakdown regularly until I just stopped
freaking and 'suffering' about it. Then it went back to normal. It still
breaks down every now and then, but I've learned not to worry about it.
Last time it happened, I was so unconcenred that two days later the fuel
pump that had died simply started working again.

Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.

Beats the alternative. Really, which would you prefer, having to deal
with a lawfully elected government, or being at the mercy of the next

At the end of the next century, we will finally discover that
TOILETS ARE TIME PORTALS TO THE PAST!

When you flush, you are giving a little back to the past.

I think the 1500's are filling up with our refuse as we speak.
Specificially near Arabia.

Someone needs to squeeze into a toilet, go back in time,
and stop Islam in the 1500's, by bringing back
porno and really good beer.

The problem is the part of the government which is exerting the most control
over people is NOT elected. In fact if the average person kew the extent of
the invasion of privacy and control, they'd be furious.

And where's the check and balance system for those who invade our privacy,
eavesdrop on our telecommunications, eh? By what laws are they bound? And
what is the punishment for individuals who abuse that power, eh?

Heaven forbid we're left to defend ourselves. Just think what the
barbarians would do to our sky scrapers if it weren't for the

i hope you get what you want,
but (legal! entirely! including all effects forever!) isn't f.t.l. and
hyper-light transport (qualified by the previous parenthetical note)
supposedly a suppressed technology?
the negative-security sector wants all the good of it kept to themselves.
therefore you can only duplicate master destruction stuff,
not mental health nor stuff defined by it.
a bad rule, yes, but there you go.
the nuclear war's on 8-17-2004 in some dimensions. around 13 o'clock new
york time, u.s. .
"people who have their "head up their ass" "can't see shit"." go figure
errorlessly, it's what happened,
even by definition: "negative security sector", go figure they haven't got
due process at heart for any one.
all things considered, by definition, they don't care who they hurt other
than themselves and their co-conspirators.
forever.
it's all on a physical science known as ufd/ppe: unified field
dynamics/parallel physics errorless.
people argue with it, it's true, but ufd/ppe:"errorless", they're arguing
with errorlessness.
see what they're arguing with? i do.
i hope you get what you want.

If you have hard proof, go to the ACLU. Trust me, you have a better
chance of getting them then getting a time traveller.

Gee. And what did you do to the al-Qaeda network since then? Seems
our government has used the thousands of professional soldiers at its
disposal and the intelligence assets we have to track down and destroy
most of their infrastructure, and reduce their leadership to either
DNA samples or hunted fugitives.

Let me get back to the point: You live in your isolated homestead,
I'm the warlord of a thousand barbarians. Who wins?

If you and all your neighbors band together for mutual defense, you
will need to have laws to regulated behavior and establish
punishments. This is what we call civilization.
